One missed step can make you stumble
|
you set yourself up for a fall
|
you punish yourself for each failure,
|
dogma beat out alcohol
|
when all of your principles were fashioned
|
you thought your new rules made you new
|
but maybe those X's on your hands are whats killing you
|
|
Chorus:
|
The Cross of Saint Andrew
|
never meant to take His place
|
The Cross of Saint Andrew
|
echoes of His grace
|
|
When Saint Andrew knew the measure
|
he knew the cost of sacrifice
|
he left all that he knew behind him
|
great things come at such great price
|
But all of this never brought the answers
|
obedience comes with controversy
|
what changed him changes me today
|
Christ has mercy
|
|
Chorus:
|
The Cross of Saint Andrew
|
never meant to take His place
|
The Cross of Saint Andrew
|
echoes of His grace
|
|
All your sins can be forgiven
|
all of this was always free
|
Jesus loves without condition
|
this is what freedom means to me
|
|
Nihil ergo nunc damnationis
|
est his qui sunt in Christo Iesu
|
qui non secundum carnem ambulant
|
(There is therefore now no condemnation
|
to them which are in Christ Jesus,
|
who walk not after the flesh,
|
but after the Spirit)
|
-Romans 8:1,2
